Glass Bottles

One more drink, and you hide the bottle.
You swear,
You promise that you don't have a problem.
You close the door on those who tell you,
And hide in the bottom of your glass,
Drinking and swigging your life away.
Drunken rampages,
Name-calling,
Paranoia,
And hate.
You ignore us, you ignore the world,
Just keep drinking and losing this internal battle.
You numb yourself,
Even at the cost of everything-
Love,
Happiness,
And a home.
Rock bottom isn't low enough, is it?
You will never learn,
Never change.
You broke us,
Shattered us like we did your stupid glass bottles.
You pretended to stop,
But don't underestamate us-
We know your hiding spots.
